(December 16)

Janine and Dimitri walk around the corner of Tasha's house doing a sweep, checking for anything out of place. When Dimitri felt the magic tingle on his right wrist coming from the bond, he realized Jasmine was close by. Dimitri remembers what his grandmother told him. The element and the keeper would know they were near each other at any time. Reach down and pull his sleeve, showing the mark of the oak tree. Janine asked, "What is that?" Dimitri said, "This is the mark of the keeper of the element." I am Jasmine's keeper. I can tell when Jasmine is near me at anytime. " Janine asked, "Does Jasmine feel the same?" Dimitri said, "Yes!"

When it's their turn to make music, they turn around to see a mustang come around the bend from behind the line of trees. Janine said "They had a good time." Janine and Dimitri watched back as the mustang's ass broke free, making the mustang go 180° in the opposite direction. Jasmine puts it in reverse and backs up to the house. Stop before hitting the house. Both Janine and Dimitri were surprised that Jasmine or Christian did that. When the passage and driver's doors open, Jasmine and Christian step out, and I hear them both laughing. Christian said, "That was great." You have to do that again sometime. Jasmine said, "As you wish, Pyro, and give him a smile.

Dimitri and Janine could see Christian wearing black boots, blue jeans, a white t-shirt, and sunglasses. Jasmine steps out wearing skin-tight black jeans, red long sleeves, a crop top, combat boots in black, and sunshades. Both reached into the backseats and pulled out Duffy Bags. They both closed the doors and started heading to the front door of Tasha's house.

Janine and Dimitri made their way to Jasmine and Christian to catch them before going. Their heads turned and stared at Dimitri. Janine said, "Lord Ozera and Jasmine." Jasmine said, "Hi mom and cowboy." Christian said, "Guardian Hathaway and Guardian Belikov." It's nice to see both of you again. "Come, Jasmine." Jasmine, in turn, began to follow Christian to Tasha's house.

Dimitri was staring at Jasmine and thought to himself, "Jasmine looked sexy as hell." At that point, Dimitri reached down, grabbed Jasmine's bag, and said, "Here, let me help you." Jasmine glanced at him and gave Dimitri a small sexy smile. Dimitri, Janine, Jasmine, and Christian followed Christian to the front door. Janine opens the door and Christian and Jasmine walk inside.

Dimitri said, "Please come in." Christian and Jasmine walked inside to find Rose, Adrian, Eddie, and Vasilisa sitting in the living room together. Janine said, "Everyone looks like they have arrived." Everyone turns around to find Christian and Jasmine standing in front of Dimitri and Janine.

Vasilisa said, "Jasmine and Christian." I ran over to both of them, giving them both big hugs. Rose said, "It's good to see both again." Adrian said, "It's about time they arrived at the party, Little Nova and Christian." Vasilisa said, "They must be exhausted after your long journey." Christian and Jasmine looked at each other and then back at Vasilisa. Dimitri caught that minor detail and knew that both of them were hiding a secret. That was going to change.

Tasha came out of the kitchen and said, "Christian, it's nice of you to come to visit the house." Christian turned to Tasha and said, "Please do not disrespect my guardian in front of me." Is that understood? " Rose, Eddie, Jasmine, and everyone else could see that Christian wasn't backing down. Vasilisa was surprised that Christian had to change and made him look strong. Tasha said, "Yes! Christian." Welcome to my home, Guardian Hathaway. "Welcome to my home," Jasmine said, "Thank you for having me." You have a lovely home. I believe that it could use a little more color to brighten up the room, which would make it more homely. " Vasilisa said, "Thank god. I am not the only person who believes that space uses more color. This room could be a little brighter. "

Tasha was stunned by hearing Jasmine and Vasilisa say that her home could use a little more color to brighten up the room. Tasha asked. "What do you believe is the force point of the living room?" Jasmine said, "The fireplace is a focal point with the right color, like an off-white with gray molding." Remove this carpet and put in a hardwood floor. Remove the sofa, put in a love seat, two chairs at the right angle, and with the nice rug, and this room would be big. " Tasha said, "Thank you Jasmine for the information on how to make a house prettier." Christian said, "Let's not start this again." It will end up like our apartment, with tea doles and little glass figurines. Jasmine said, "Leave my little glass figurines alone." "They're pretty!" Christian said, "That sounds so girly!" Jasmine said, "Shut up!" Everyone laughs that Christian and Jasmine sound the same as in the old days.

"If you both follow me, I will show you where you can sleep while you are both here." Dimitri said. Christian and Jasmine followed Dimitri upstairs and down the hallway to the guest room. Dimitri opened the door and walked inside. Dimitri said, "Christian, This will be your room while staying here. Jasmine's bedroom will be down the hall from yours. " Dimitri set a Christian bag on the bed. Dimitri was walking out of Christian's bedroom and closing the door behind them.

"Dimitri said, "This way! Jasmine and show where you are sleeping. " Both Dimitri and Jasmine walked down the hall to their rooms. Dimitri opened the door and pushed Jasmine inside. Dimitri invited her inside and closed the door behind him. Jasmine turned around, looked at Dimitri, and said, "What the hell? Did you mind your manners while living with Natasha? " Dimitri said, "Shut up! Dimitri put Jasmine's bag on the chair next to the bed.

Dimitri reached over and grabbed Jasmine, pulling her to him, leaning down, and started kissing Jasmine with passion, love, and desire. Dimitri moved his hand to her butt and grabbed Jasmine's ass, making her moan in a good way. Dimitri pulled back and gazed into Jasmine's eyes, only to find they were light brown. "Someone has been a naughty girl again." Dimitri said. Jasmine cocked her head at Dimitri. When Jasmine was puzzled about something, Dimitri said, leaving me in bed alone after a night of wild, passionate sex at the academy. Jasmine said, "You left me in a coma after the biggest event in my life for that slut." Dimitri said, "I'm sorry, baby girl." I wasn't there when you needed me. Tasha compels me to be her guardian for two years. While you are staying here, you will be sleeping in my bed. We are going to make the bond repeatedly. Everyone is going to hear you scream out my name. While I fuck your brains right out of your head. "

Jasmine said, "You only have to work that bitch for fourteen months before you can get away from that bitch." She smiled at Dimitri, showing her fangs. A knock on the door led Dimitri to start kissing Jasmine again and enjoy having her in his arms. Jasmine and Dimitri broke apart. Dimitri opens the door to find Rose and Christian standing on the other side of the door.

Rose said, "Dinner is ready." Jasmine said, "Christian and I will need to feed soon." Dimitri said, "That is not a problem." I will inform Guardian Hathaway, and I will make arrangements so that both get your blood to make sure that Tasha doesn't find out. Jasmine said, "Good! I don't have to kick her ass around her neck. Then you don't have to wear her like a fuzzy hat. " Christian, Rose, and Dimitri busted out in laughter. Christian said, "I could see you doing that."


(Dinner room)

Rose, Christian, Jasmine, and Dimitri walked downstairs, finding the table all set with dinner. Janine walked out of the kitchen with forks and knives. Vasilisa said, "Come and let's eat dinner together like a family." Jasmine's seat is behind Christian, and Dimitri sits down at the table with Christian on Jasmine's left and Dimitri on the right side. Tasha served a chicken lasagna with a creamy white sauce.

Vasilisa started praying. Jasmine used her fork to look at the chicken lasagna to check if it had tomatoes in it. Dimitri took Jasmine's fork to stop picking at her food. Jasmine said, "Give it back." Everyone started eating dinner, and Dimitri gave Jasmine's fork back to her. Jasmine took her fork back from Dimitri and started looking at the chicken lasagna. Dimitri asked, "What are you doing?" Jasmine said, "I'm checking to see if there is any tomato inside of it." But Jasmine didn't find any.

Jasmine ate a few bites. When she felt that something was wrong, she began experiencing difficulty breathing, coughing, and throat swelling, and she shoved her plate away from her. Reach over and grab Christian's right arm. Christian turned his head to see that his best friend, Jasmine, was having trouble breathing. Jasmine started hitting her leg with her fist.

Christian said, "Jazz!" Jasmine's other hand was around her neck.

Dimitri turns his head around and views Jasmine as in trouble. A Christian understood what Jasmine was trying to say. She required her to yell, "Rose! Get Jasmine's Epi-Pen from her bag upstairs. " Rose breaks free from the table and runs upstairs to Jasmine's backpack to get her Epi-Pen. Janine jumped up from her seat and ran around the table.

Dimitri asked, "What was in the chicken lasagna?" Tasha answered, slowly. Let's see. There is chicken, cheese, flakes of tomato, herbs, and other items. Dimitri said, "Damn it, Tasha!" "Jasmine is deadly allergic to tomatoes."

Janine had grabbed Jasmine, pulled her out of the chair, and laid her on the floor. Jasmine started passing out from lack of air, and her daughter's eyes rolled back in her head. Rose said, "I have Jasmine and an EpiPen." Janine grabbed the EpiPen from Rose and moved the blue cap. I hit Jasmine in the side of the left leg with it and waited three seconds before moving it and starting to rub the area for ten seconds.

Vasilisa started crying, not knowing that Jasmine was going to live or die. Christian put his arms around Vasilisa and pulled her tight to him. Adrian had his hands on Rose's shoulders and pulled her close to him. Eddie and Adrian were surprised to discover that Jasmine was deadly allergic to tomatoes.

Tasha watched everything and thought about what was happening at her dinner table. It's beyond me how they got so worked up about tomatoes in chicken. She was thinking to herself, "You'll be dead soon, and I'll have Dimka all to myself again." You stupid bitch! "

"Janine, order" Dimitri to pick Jasmine up. We need to take Jasmine to the hospital right now. Tasha doesn't think about running. I will hunt you down and you will pay for hurting my daughter. " Tasha looked surprised that Janine would talk to her that way.

Dimitri reached down, picked Jasmine up, and pulled her to his chest. Tasha said, "Dimka!" But it was too late. Dimitri and Janine were already out the front door with Jasmine. Dimitri said, "We take Jasmine, the mustang." It is faster. "

Janine took Jasmine's keys off her belt. Janine gets into the passage side of the mustang. Dimitri handed Jasmine to her mother. Janine pulled Jasmine closer to her and worried about her baby. Dimitri grabbed the keys from Janine and ran around to the driver's seat.

Dimitri opens the driver's door and gets in. The mustang came to life. Dimitri drives Jasmine to a special wing of the hospital for Moroi and Dhampirs. Dimitri and Janine were worried about Jasmine. She knows that her life hangs in the balance between life and death. Dimitri thought to himself, "Goddamn you, Tasha." You will pay for this. We make sure you will.
